I introduce the new nixpkgs parameter "platform", defaulting to "pc",
which was before defined as an attribute of nixpkgs.
I made the crossSystem nixpkgs attribute set parameter contain its own 'platform'.
This allows cross-building a kernel for a given crossSystem.platform in a non-PC
platform.
The actual native platform can be taken from stdenv.platform, and this way we also
avoid the constant passing of 'platform' to packages for platform-dependant builds
(kernel, initrd, ...).
I will update nixos accordingly to these changes, for non-PC platforms to work.
I think we are gaining on flexibility and clearness. I could cross build succesfully
an ultrasparc kernel and a mipsel kernel on PC. But since this change, I should be able
to do this also in non-PC.
Before this change, there was no possibility of distinguishing the "target platform" or
the "native build platform" when cross building, being the single "platform" attribute
always interpreted as target platform.
The platform is a quite relevant attribute set, as it determines the linuxHeaders used
(in the case, by now the only one supported, of linux targets).
The platform attributes are quite linux centric still. Let's hope for more generality to come.

stdenv.
In this gcc-wrapper2 I made the ld-wrapper.sh to handle the linking with shared
objects through direct pass as ld command arguments of the absolute path to shared
objects, instead of using the -L/-l combinations.
cmake 'FindXXX.cmake' modules make a strong usage of the dynamic linking directly
passing the absolute path to the shared object to the linker, and as our wrapper did
not add any -rpath for those, writting the nix expressions for some cmake packages
resulted in a lot of tricks, compared to using this gcc-wrapper2.
This gcc-wrapper2/ld-wrapper.sh should become the gcc-wrapper/ld-wrapper in a
stdenv update.
I also updated some cmake expressions to use this gcc-wrapper2, and reduced its
tricks.
I also updated the cmake setup-hook for it to make cmake not touch any rpath decided
at build time, when running the 'make install' of makefiles created by cmake.

- Before this changes, cflags and ldflags for the native and the cross compiler
got mixed. Not all the gcc-wrapper/gcc-cross-wrapper variables are
independant now, but enough, I think.
- Fixed the generic stdenv expression, which did a big mess on buildInputs and
buildNativeInputs. Now it distinguishes when there is a stdenvCross or not.
Maybe we should have a single stdenv and forget about the stdenvCross
adapter - this could end in a stdenv a bit complex, but simpler than the
generic stdenv + adapter.
- Added basic support in pkgconfig for cross-builds: a single PKG_CONFIG_PATH
now works for both the cross and the native compilers, but I think this
should work well for most cases I can think of.
- I tried to fix the guile expression to cross-biuld; guile is built, but not
its manual, so the derivation still fails. Guile requires patching to
cross-build, as far as I understnad.
- Made the glibcCross build to be done through the usage of a
gcc-cross-wrapper over the gcc-cross-stage-static, instead of using it
directly.

- Removed the binutilsCross from the glibc expressions. Now they are built

derivation, the "buildInputs" in every stdenv mkDerivation don't map now
directly to the environment

build by the native compiler.
When cross compiling, they will map to the environment variable "buildInputs"
(yes, now the same name), which means does to be built with the cross compiler.
I think I improved the naming of variables a bit. There was a big mess,
specially in the stdenv adapter for cross building, and also in the default
builder script.
I also tried to add proper manager of propagatedInputBuilds, these being
propagated considering the host or build origin of that input build (so, at the
end, being those propagatedInputBuilds being propagated properly to the native

svn path=/nixpkgs/trunk/; revision=18438
My idea is to provide special stdenv expressions that will contain in the path
additional cross compilers. As most expressions for programs accept a stdenv parameter,
we could substitute this parameter with the special stdenv, which will have a
generic builder that attempts the usual "--target=..." and can additionally
have an env variable like "cross" with the target architecture set.
So, finally we could have additional expressions like this:
bashRealArm = makeOverridable (import ../shells/bash) {
inherit fetchurl bison;
stdenv = stdenvCross "armv5tel-unknown-linux-gnueabi";
};
Meanwhile it does not work - I still cannot get the cross-gcc to build.
I think it does not fill the previous expressions with a lot of noise, so I
think it may be a good path to follow.
I only touched some files of the current stdenv: gcc-4.3, kernel headers
2.6.28, glibc 2.9, ...
I tried to use the gcc-cross-wrapper, that may be very outdated. Maybe I will
update it, or update the gcc-wrapper expression to make it fit the cross tools,
but meanwhile I even cannot build gcc, so I have not tested the wrapper.
This new idea on cross compiling is not similar to that of the
nixpkgs/branches/cross-compilation, which mostly added bare new expressions for
anything to be cross compiled, if I understood it correctly.
I cared not to break anything of the usual stdenv in all this work.

works on Red Hat Linux, i.e. that is based on glibc version 2.5.
Furthermore, this patch fixes a number of gcc 4.3.3 build errors in glibc 2.5
that occur on both x86 and x86_64. The older version of this library is still
useful for running Nix on a Red Hat host. Newer version of glibc fail to detect
the kernel's capabilities correctly (due to mad patches applied to the kernel
by Red Hat).
The individual changes are:
* Re-activated glibc 2.5 in all-packages.nix.
* Fix incomplete header search path in bootstrap tools.
Gcc-wrapper sets "-B<prefix>" to tell the compiler about its installation
root. Unfortunately, the setting doesn't add $gcc/lib/gcc/*/*/include-fixed
to the search path. That directory is required, however, because it contains
the system-specific "limits.h" file, and the glibc 2.5 builds tries to find
that file via #include_next.
* Support intrinsic functions like __signbit() or atof() correctly to avoid
compile-time conflicts.
* Switch to NPTL. Linuxthreads is no longer supported.
* Added a meta attribute to glibc package.
* Updated nixUnstable to version 0.13pre15614 from trunk. The previous version
failed regression tests.
* Fix more strict type checking in binutils since 2.18.50.0.3.
Without this patch, the build failed on x86, saying:

fetching a file with hash HASH of type TYPE, we first try to
download <base-url>/<type>/<hash>, where <base-url> is one of a list
of mirrors. For instance, given
src = fetchurl {
url = http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/2.0.0.6/source/firefox-2.0.0.6-source.tar.bz2;
sha1 = "eb72f55e4a8bf08e8c6ef227c0ade3d068ba1082";

try to download
eb72f55e4a
and if that fails, we use the original URL.
The list of mirrors is not yet user-configurable.
* `fetchurl' now also accepts an argument `urls' instead of `url' for
a list of alternative download locations, which fetchurl will try in
sequence.

to the gcc invocation.
If we pass a flag like -Wl, then gcc will call the linker unless it
can figure out that it has to do something else (e.g., because of a
"-c" flag). So if no non-flag arguments are given, don't pass any
linker flags. This catches cases like "gcc" (should just print
"gcc: no input files") and "gcc -v" (should print the version).

* Removed substitute, it's part of the generic builder now.
* stdenv-initial (Linux): use the real generic builder script. This
does require that sed is in the path of the builder of the initial
stdenv.

* If the environment variable buildCommand is set, then eval that
instead of doing the build phases. This is used by the runCommand
function in all-packages.nix to allow one-lines like
foo = runCommand "foo" {} "mkdir $out; echo foo > $out/foo";

`@var@' in the file `src', writing the result to $out, where `var'
is any environment variable starting with a lowercase character.
Example:
genericSubstituter {
src = ./file;
foo = "bla";
shell = bash + "/bin/sh";
};
will replace `@foo@' with `bla' and `@shell@' with
`/nix/store/...-bash-.../bin/sh'.

Glibc. This is useful when building GCC.
* gcc-wrapper: the dynamic linker has a different name on x86_64 and
powerpc.
* gcc-wrapper: "glibc" -> "libc", because someday we might support
different C libraries.
* gcc: don't do a multilib build (e.g., 32-bit support on x86_64),
don't need it.
* gcc: merge in support for static builds.
* gcc: various simplifications in the compiler/linker flags, hope they
work.

contains arbitrary information about a package, like this:
meta = {
homepage = "http://gcc.gnu.org/";
license = "GPL/LGPL";
description = "GNU Compiler Collection, 4.0.x";
};
The "meta" attribute is not passed to the actual derivation
operation, so it's not a dependency --- changes to "meta" attributes
don't trigger a recompilation.
Now we have to standardise some useful attributes ;-)

in /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 (which will typically load a driver in
/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/dri). This has been tested on a i915
graphics card; it should work with most open source X.org drivers.
For NVidia's proprietary drivers (which we cannot build ourselves
anyway), some more symlinks are necessary; I'll add those later.
So to get hardware-accelerated Quake 3, do:
$ nix-env -p /nix/var/nix/profiles/opengl -i xorg-sys-opengl
$ nix-env -i quake3-demo
$ quake3

allow the OpenGL implementation to be overriden through the
OPENGL_DRIVER environment variable. If it is not set, we use the
implementation installed in the profile
/nix/var/nix/profiles/opengl, allowing easy late binding by the
user, e.g.,
$ nix-env -p /nix/var/nix/profiles/opengl -i nvidia-sys-opengl
might install the NVidia OpenGL implementation.
The code that does this is not specific to Quake 3: it has been
factored out into build-support/opengl/mesa-switch.sh. Presumably
any application that requires hardware-accelerated OpenGL needs it.
* Add the Quake 3 demo to the cache.

`*.dll.config' files corresponding to CLR assemblies. I.e., the
full path to native libraries is included in the maps. In effect
this allows us to set the equivalent of an RPATH for assemblies.
* gtk-sharp: use the DLL fixer. It's not perfect yet: I still have to
set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH for monodoc to include the gtk-sharp lib
directory itself, so that it can find the `*sharpglue.so' files.
This seems to be gtk-sharp's fault; it doesn't have an entry for
those libraries in its DLL maps.

this contains mostly Armijn's pure stdenv-linux.
* After unpacking the statically linked GCC, patch all store paths to
/nix/store/ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff. Ugly hack to prevent
undeclared references but it works.
* We don't need Glib's dynamic libraries in the first bootstrap stage;
delete them. Actually the downloaded Glibc binary is only needed
for building Glibc, since GCC needs a C compiler to build some
programs in `configure'. So static linking is fine for that. Maybe
it would be better to patch `configure' so that we don't need a
pre-built Glibc at all.
* Set the svn:executable property on `cp' and `patchelf'.
* In Glibc, revert to LinuxThreads. Maybe NPTL will work, but TLS
support is a problem.
* Delete most Glibc patches; they're no longer needed since the branch
updated it to 20050110.
* Some cleanups.

the tree being fetched from a Subversion repository. The revision
number is now optional (and defaults to HEAD).
This makes `fetchsvn' more pure. First, a URL/revision tuple does
not uniquely identify a file resource, since the repository itself
might change. Second, `svn:external' attributes can cause arbitrary
resources to be exported.
A script `nix-prefetch-svn' has been provided to determine the hash
of a URL.

libgcc of the gcc being built, not the gcc building it.
* Only include a directory in the rpath of an executable/library if it
is actually used. Before, the `/lib' directory of every build input
was added to the rpath, causing many unnecessary retained
dependencies. For instance, Perl has a `/lib' directory, but most
applications whose build process uses Perl don't actually link
against Perl. (Also added a test for this.)
* After building glibc, remove glibcbug, to prevent a retained
dependency on gcc.
* Add a newline after `building X' in GNU Make.

On the downside, the build process of stdenvLinux builds gcc 9 times
(3 x 3 bootstrap stages). That's a bit excessive.

builders for typical Autoconf-style to be much shorten, e.g.,
. $stdenv/setup
genericBuild
The generic builder does lots of stuff automatically:
- Unpacks source archives specified by $src or $srcs (it knows about
gzip, bzip2, tar, zip, and unpacked source trees).
- Determines the source tree.
- Applies patches specified by $patches.
- Fixes libtool not to search for libraries in /lib etc.
- Runs `configure'.
- Runs `make'.
- Runs `make install'.
- Strips debug information from static libraries.
- Writes nested log information (in the format accepted by
`log2xml').
There are also lots of hooks and variables to customise the generic
builder. See `stdenv/generic/docs.txt'.
* Adapted the base packages (i.e., the ones used by stdenv) to use the
generic builder.
* We now use `curl' instead of `wget' to download files in `fetchurl'.
* Neither `curl' nor `wget' are part of stdenv. We shouldn't
encourage people to download stuff in builders (impure!).
* Updated some packages.
* `buildinputs' is now `buildInputs' (but the old name also works).
* `findInputs' in the setup script now prevents inputs from being
processed multiple times (which could happen, e.g., if an input was
a propagated input of several other inputs; this caused the size
variables like $PATH to blow up exponentially in the worst case).
* Patched GNU Make to write nested log information in the format
accepted by `log2xml'. Also, prior to writing the build command,
Make now writes a line `building X' to indicate what is being
built. This is unfortunately often obscured by the gigantic tool
invocations in many Makefiles. The actual build commands are marked
`unimportant' so that they don't clutter pages generated by
`log2html'.

checked whether absolute paths passed to gcc/ld refer to the store,
which is wrong: they can also refer to the build tree
(/tmp/nix-...).
* Less static composition in the construction of stdenv-nix-linux:
gcc-wrapper and generic are now passed in as arguments, rather then
referenced by relative path. This makes it easier to hack on a
specific stage of the bootstrap process (before, a change to, e.g.,
generic/setup.sh would cause all bootstrap stages to be redone).

- gcc/ld-wrappers have been factored out into a separate
derivation. This allows a working gcc to be installed in the user
environment. (Previously the Nix gcc didn't work because it
needed a whole bunch of flags to point to glibc.)
- Better modularity: packages can specify hooks into the setup
scripts. For instance, setup no longer knows about the
PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable; pkgconfig can set it up instead.
- gcc not longer depends on binutils. This simplifies the bootstrap
process.

a big problem, so I decided to require to user to get the
file and put it in some location in the file system. wget
doesn't seem to accept the file scheme however, so I had to
move the copying into the builder itself. The builder checks
the md5 hash of the downloaded file. Maybe having a separate
'fetchfile' would be useful to make a file in the outside
world pure. I tried to add this to build-support, but this
obviously did not work. I still committed it. Just remove it
if you think that it sucks.
